This is the third year of the Symposium ScholarGrant opportunity. The selection process involved two rounds of proposals–in both proposal and speech transcript form–both analyzed in a fashion similar to the well-known TED Talks. We would like to thank all applicants for their continued participation and support.

Interested in applying for the Symposium ScholarGrant opportunity in the future? We will be accepting applications for the TGS 2019 Symposium starting in December, so watch out for more details. Feel free to reach out to alumninetworkteam@tgs.org with any questions regarding the process.
